Head On
People are remembered for the challenges they overcome. You can run away and forget what you're capable of or you can face your fears and remind the world of who you are. - Jane Romero
Description
When your mind is set, there better be no one standing in your way.
After hiding in a Locker for 3 seconds, Head On activates:
- Performing a Rush Exit out of the Locker stuns a nearby Killer for 3 seconds.
Head On causes the Exhausted Status Effect for 60/50/40 seconds.
Head On cannot be used while Exhausted or when having accrued Idle Crows.

Our take
Exhaustion perk. Exhaustion perks are the backbone of any chase build. They give a one-shot burst of speed, after which you are locked out of other exhaustion perks for a duration.
How to use it Head On is at its best when used to break line of sight - drop a pallet first, vault, then trigger it. Avoid using it at the start of a chase or in open ground where the Killer will just swing through it.
Best for Solo queue survivors who need a reliable chase escape. Pairs with any build that gives you pallet or vault value to extend the chase after the speed burst ends.
